Your Doom Has Arrived!

Well, it's kind of rocky as I get towards the end of the movie. You would be rocky, too, having to review it in this detail. All the important lessons happen fairly early, so all that's left in the last five pages is spite.

I'll probably refine it someday. It's pretty freaking rough as it is.

Here's the pdf of Doom: The Movie: The Dissection, weighing in at a slim, trim seventeen pages. Read it while watching the movie, I say. Otherwise, I have no idea how you'll make it through all the endless pages.

Very good review/essay! It sums up pretty much what I thought of the movie, but never bothered delving this deeply into why I thought it. I believe when my friend asked what I thought of the movie my words were, "It was this close to being really good."

The essay was a little hard to read at times, as I saw the movie in theatres 5 months ago, so my memory about certain parts was rather fuzzy. I'm not planning on buying or renting it on DVD, so watching it as I read wasn't really an option. I think a little bit more description of the scene you're talking about would've been nice for people like me.

Nonetheless, it was an enjoyable read, much like your in-depth review of Doom 3.
